My neurosurgeon put in an order for physical therapy on my left shoulder on February 8th 2024. I was told by my PT therapist it was submitted by ATI to Comagine for approval on February 23rd, 2024. It is now nearly June 2024 and still nothing. I've had to repeatedly ask over and over again for time extensions on a previous PT order for my lower back because the time frame approved was only 3 weeks for 12 sessions which was not long enough and apparently whoever is responsible at ATI for submitting to L&I for approval and to their governing health authority comagine is not doing their job! For previous problems like this with great difficulty I was finally able to get through to what was called their escalation department and a woman named ******* @ **********. A few months ago with an earlier issue she called me back once told me she would investigate and call me the beginning of the following week and never did. This was about problems with the first lower back order and me being told contradictory information by several ATI representatives about whether it had been approved or not by L&I. She never called back then and I've left at least 5 to 7 voicemail messages for her since then and she has never called me back! How is one supposed to get these failures resolved if even their escalation department doesn't respond? At present it took my wonderful PT therapist who is very very busy with clients to have to take time out helping clients to do someone else's job in following up the submissions or the neglecting of submissions in order to help me get my sessions approved. The PT order for my left shoulder has still never been followed up on apparently by ATI's department responsible for submitting for approval to insurance! I want to make it clear that my PT therapists at the ******* location are all outstanding but ATIs back office is horrible to say the least!Business response

Complaint: 21775003
I am rejecting this response because:It really amounts to a non-response and not much of an apology really. I'd like to see a more sincere apology for totally dropping the ball on my shoulder PT order for for 5 months.
The department responsible for submitting for approval to comagin has still been incredibly difficult to deal with telling me that I have to have an evaluation of my shoulder before they can submit for approval to Comagine when last year that was never the case and obviously a client does not want to have to pay out of pocket for an evaluation visit when there's no guarantee that it will be approved by ********! Given the number of billing issue complaints on this website It's understandable why one would want approval before any visits to PT! It seems to me that the communication between that department and the lady ******* from the escalation department who has now been helping me has been erratic with her being told different things by different people.
I do want to amend my complaint about ******* as now she has been extremely helpful. Not sure why all those phone calls over the last few months were never returned but she has more than made up for it recently by bending over backwards to try and get this all straightened out.
I think The real problem is with the authorization department not paying attention enough to what orders that come in actually say and then really being proactive in helping the client get their approval request done so that they can either start or continue their therapy! In all honesty my impression of the back office handling of things is that it's disorganized lacking in good communication and not really motivated to do the best job possible. Obviously from the number of complaints on this BBB website there are systemic issues with ATIs handling of billing and back office issues!
Sincerely,

Complaint: 21775003
I am rejecting this response because: this company's response is basically composed of what reads as pre-written wrote responses. Still do not feel like any meaningful apology was given for dropping the ball for 5 months on my PT shoulder order. As it stands right now I have an evaluation scheduled for next Tuesday and we'll see if after jumping through that hoop the *** approval department manages to get this submitted properly to comagine. I want to wait and see if they actually get this done before I close out this complaint. Both ******* in escalation and **** My therapist at the ************ branch in ******* have had to spend I don't even know how much time trying to get this done when it's not even their job. A rote response does not come across as heartfelt or that anyone really cares about improving the performance of the department responsible for submitting to various insurances for therapy approval. If the department responsible for submitting for approval to insurance gets it done this time and in a timely way since it's already been since February 23rd I've been waiting, then I will close out this complaint but a sincere apology would have been not only appropriate but appreciated.
Sincerely,

I was approved by insurance to *********** physalis therapy sessions. I had ******** at that time. Its been ***** months back that this session of PT was taken.

Dear ************,
This response is in reference to case #******** submitted on 4/24/24. A thorough review of your account was performed by our Director of Compliance and Audit. A review of the payments that were performed show that a CHIP Read occurred at your first payment which indicates that you presented the card for the payment. The next two payments show that transactions were keyed which means the clinic manually performed the next two payments and the clinic would have asked for your permission to process the transaction. ATI only charged your card with your permission which has left an $80 balance on your account.

I have called the 800 phone number on at least 5 occasions, the last time was on 4/18/24 and I spoke to "****" - a supervisor. I spent over 2 hours on the phone with him, and on previous occasions with other agents. I have receipts for all of my 28 visits to ***. Each time I paid $5. Insurance paid too and ***s are attached. I'm attaching a sheet of how much I owe (the sum of the *** less the $5 paid on site), plus I paid an extra $2.90 at my last Dec. visit of 2023. They say I've only paid $137.90. The total that I owe adds up to $53.42. I'm willing to pay $58.42 as my time is not worth the $5. Yet, they won't take my payment. Believe it or not. Their accounting keeps coming up with even more that I owe but I do not owe more than this amount. My paperwork proves it. I could also attach every single receipt I got emailed to me from the onsite payments of $5 I made. I did send "****" the actual receipts of the ones he requested. But alas, I can't get them to take my payment. Calling the *********** is hugely frustrating. I'll be talking to one person then get transferred to another and have to start all over. I just want to pay my bill and get this over with. Thank you. (I'm also attaching screenshots from my credit card bills for several dates that they questioned I paid - as proof).Business response

I keep getting a bill for copays that were paid at time of service. It is ***** and Im still getting bills. This company keeps trying to get money from their clients even after paid.

I started physical therapy with ATI *************** at intake/assessment in the end of Sept., 2023, starting actual PT in Oct., 2023. I received service at 2 locations due to physical therapy needs, starting in later Oct./Nov., at Oak Creek, as well. ATI reports that they "requested my auth extension for PT in early Feb.," and then I had a gap of nearly 2 weeks of PT from March 14 up until my return to PT on March 26. They reported to me at that time that ATI had "requested an extension of my auth time, as it ran through April 2." Having provided them exact instructions on marking it "Urgent/Expedite" on the request, as well as exactly where to send it, etc., I confirmed it should take 24hrs or less, up to ******************************************* to put through the auth. ATI continues to apparently LIE about the auth process, or has evidently opted NOT to follow the correct procedures, all of a sudden, obstructing my care in PT. I noted that I had an increase in symptoms, chronic pain, less mobility, and a decline in my progress, when PT is halted. This is called maleficence, in the medical world, as well as in the world of ethics (which I taught at colleges for 5yrs, prior to my accidents.) At the very least, do no harm, per medical ethics. I understand people are busy and that they make mistakes, but ATI has repeatedly lied about submitting my auth's, when they have been submitted, how they were submitted, etc., as though they are just trying to exasperate the customer, and that they evidently don't care what physical impact that has on my well-being. I am truly done being a toy that is played with, in the midst of everything I typically live through, having been through 2 major car accidents, and still trying to recover from the 5-16-23 one with permanent injuries I live with from the 12-31-18 semi accident. I would like ATI held accountable, their auth person re-trained, if that is the problem, & the root cause of why they obstruct my care RESOLVED ASAP. Thanks!Business response

ATI is a company that has highly qualified physical therapists that more often than not represent an excellent customer facing experience. The back office operations however have miles of room for improvement.In the last third of 2023 I attended 22 sessions delivered by the physical therapist at a location near me. During these sessions I would pay what was asked, $10, and proceed through all 22 sessions. At the end of October 2023 I ceased my physical therapy sessions for reasons that included having to see an orthopedic surgeon. I received no correspondence from ATI until February 2024. That correspondence was a billing statement where each of the 22 sessions that I had taken since August 2023 had some amount twice to four times as much in some cases than what I paid for at the time of my visit. Upon receiving the bill I called the customer service number and asked why I had not received any other statement prior to the one that I gotten mid February. I was told by the person at *** that they had sent me bills but they had all been returned. I find this peculiar because they successfully billed my insurance company which implies they have my correct address. In reviewing the bill I noticed the variance in the amounts being charged to me for each visit. Most, more than 70%, had some different charged in the previous visit. I told them that 90% of the time roughly 19 of my visits, where exactly the same. I asked them to explain how there could be a variance of up to $150 for services that were essentially the same visit over visit. They told me that I would be contacted within 14 days with regards to their internal investigation. 2 1/2 weeks later I received a final correspondence from a collection agency for the bill that was due. Once again I called and the representative said they had no record of me calling before. They are a victim of their own and incompetence's. There is no need for you to be part of that experience.Business response

Dear ****************,
This response is in reference to case #******** submitted on 4/1/24. A thorough review of your account was performed by our Director of Compliance and Audit. The signed Notice of Financial Responsibility reviews your deductible and co-insurance percentage. This notice also reviews that ATI would collect a set amount at each visit but that We will not know your full co-insurance amount until your insurance begins to pay on your claims; therefore, you will receive a billing statement for the difference between any payments may upfront and the actual amount due. Physical Therapy treatment is billed by units as defined by the **************************** (AMA) CPT code book. Most units are defined by 15-minute timeframes and a unit is attained when the midpoint of that procedure is surpassed. A variety of units are available for a clinician to utilize when billing depending on the intervention provided. Treatment codes exist for strengthening and flexibility exercises, functional activity training, balance training, gait training,manual therapy, and the modalities we provide. It is common to see a variety of these codes used for each treatment as sessions vary based on patient needs and the plan of care created by the physical therapist.
Your interaction with our Patient Advocate team was also reviewed. ATI regrets the frustration that occurred with that interaction and appreciate your feedback. This feedback will be utilized to improve our services.

I am rejecting this response because:The response does not address the behavior the complaint is targeting. The did not bill me till 4 months after my last visit with my first visit being 7 months prior to the first bill. Or the commitment made to me about looking into the variance of charges for the same service provided. Lastly the use of a collection agency 14 days after recieving the first invoice. The last action on their part is not mentioned and therefore not acknowledged as customer facing practice that is promoting a customer facing adverse experience.

I am rejecting this response because:At no point is there an explanation as to the cause of contentious interactions.
1. Why did it take 3 months after my last visit to receive any invoice statement in the first place?
2. Why did the initial call indicate an action where ATI would reach back out with a determination on the veracity of the service charges and actions performed to then have no attempt to reach back ever followed through on, even though on the initial contact call they said that it could take up to 14 days?
3. Why given that only a single invoice was received that the amount owed was turned over to a collection agency who then proceeded to attempt collections everyday day until I called ATI back? (See item 2) Told by ATI that the first call was not adequately captured surround the commitment to reach back to me.
4. What corrective action on the part of ATI is being taken to ensure that the previous 3 items will not be repeated again for any future customer?

However, BBB does not verify the accuracy of information provided by third parties, and does not guarantee the accuracy of any information in Business Profiles.
When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.
BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period. BBB Business Profiles are subject to change at any time. If you choose to do business with this business, please let the business know that you contacted BBB for a BBB Business Profile.
As a matter of policy, BBB does not endorse any product, service or business. Businesses are under no obligation to seek BBB accreditation, and some businesses are not accredited because they have not sought BBB accreditation.
Customer Reviews are not used in the calculation of BBB Rating
